I Shaved My Head

[haltz]

OK, so I haven't shaved my head since my freshman year of college (well, not me, the 23-yo Puerto Rican guy ahead of me on the depth chart actually -- I had a higher batting average in the fall though, and we all know that's all that matters). Chad and I were the the only two freshman on the team so we got truly f'd with. What's a fruit basket, you ask? What's it like to get dropped off in the middle of nowhere without any clothes at all? Don't worry about it, just know that it was an enlightening experience. The girls from Daytona were not impressed by our weird haircuts. That's hard to do.

Anyway, since we were freshman, during spring break we got our heads shaved. Not just shaved, embarrassingly shaved. I was made to look like a 16th century priest. Friar Tuck hollaback. Chad got the inverse, which was hysterical if I do say so myself.

I was thinking about posting pictures, but I'm way too drunk unfortunately.

So anyway, I got hammered and chopped off all my lettuce. Completely random. 1/4" guard I think. It feels great (and let's be honest, how it feels is about all that matters) but I'm not sure about the looks. Actually, I am going to take some pictures. Depends on if I pass out first or not. You're all on the edge of your seats. As far as the rant is concerned, it looks ridiculous, trust me (if I pass out I will post pictures tomorrow*).

Vote or die. And watch this while you're at it (I posted this in the superfunfun thread, but everyone needs to check it out -- especially Thrill).

Too much anecdotal BS? Would you like to hear about how AJ Van Slyke and I got in a fight during a summer basketball game? I liked to throw at him during legion and high school ball? Point taken. Let's go ahead and blame it on the Champagne of Beers.

I think this may be the first poll ever in Rants. And I watch that video at least once a week and it never gets old.

On topic, I've been rocking the shaved head for about a year now. Not shaved, shaved but probably a half inch long or so. I think it suits me pretty well.

I have a feeling he's going to wuss out and not post pictures.

[Radbird]

Yeah, but he won't be conscious for another six hours, give or take, so we'll just have to be patient.

[GatewaySnayke]

So is the rant going to be about AJ Van Slyke?

[haltz]

Yeah, but he won't be conscious for another six hours, give or take, so we'll just have to be patient.

Actually, I went in to work and got sent home already. It's been a great day.

What an embarrassing drunkthread.

That was an absolutely awesome post.

I also buzzed my head a few weeks back; I was trimming up my sideburns and wisely pulled the clippers a full inch higher than I needed to, and thus had to cut all the rest of my hair off to even out that stupid gouge. Skinny guy + close cropped hair doesnt look good, so I'm happy it's growing out pretty quickly. That said, short hair lets me pull off this weak beard I'm sporting more than 'styled' hair lengths or whatever.

Glad to hear you survived. I can't vote until we see some pics.

Can't tell me nuthin.

Btw, I shave my head in the summer too. Not skin level, but the two guard. Doesn't look the best, but holy crap does it feel great.
